** Thank you to Colleen Rothschild for Sponsoring today's post! Every opinion expressed is 100% my own**
The way I look forward to my morning coffee, is the same level of excitement as when I think about my nighttime skincare routine! I've mentioned many times on Instagram stories, how I stepped up my game when it came to the products I use on my face. I have been using Colleen Rothschild's products daily for going on two years, but I really got a great routine last August! Let's be honest, if you're part of that group that also rocks skinny jeans and side parts, you should really be thinking about perfecting your skincare regimen as well....insert laughing emoji here!- I couldn't help myself, but really.
I thought I would walk you thru my current line up of what I love and use daily! It's the perfect time too because Colleen Rothschild is currently running a great promotion:

Step 1: Cleanse // Radiant Cleansing Balm
This is one of the products I cannot and will not live without! If I had to pick my number one must have, this is it! Every night when I wash my face, it feels like I am at the spa. From the smell to the way it leaves my face feeling, it's down right wonderful! If you have dry skin and haven't tried their radiant cleansing balm, take my word for it - you need this!
When I shared this in the past one stories I got questions on how it works. You take it in your hands and rub it around to "warm it up" then you'll apply all over your face, massaging it in. Then you take either the muslin cloth (that comes with it) or washcloth run it under hot water and rub it off your face! Your face is left clean and feeling so moisturized!! Like I mentioned above, I have dry skin, so I am not a fan of when you wash your face and it's left feeling squeaky clean and dried out! This is the opposite, your skin feels SO hydrated and luxurious!!
Step 2: Toner // Matcha Toner
I use this morning and night after I cleanse. This is another product that really brings moisture and life to your face! In the morning, this is my favorite step because it makes me feel "fresh" and at night I love it for a second cleansing step to make sure I removed all my makeup and dirt from the day.
I also have noticed that it has made a huge difference in my pore size!
Step 3: Oils // Face Oil N9
Speaking of luxurious, this oil is every bit of that! When I talk about the texture of my skin changing in the last 6 months, it has largely to do with this magical oil! Clearly, I am not the only one that feels that way either because it is often out of stock. I never skip this step at night. I will apply 2-3 drops before I do my moisturizer. Don't be scared by the word "oil" either! It soaks right in and just delivers that moisture you need if you skin tends to be dry and will actually help control oil if you tend to have oily skin....see MAGIC!
Step 4: Moisturize // The Extreme Recovery Cream
If you also have dry skin on the regular or you have very dry skin right now due to the weather, this cream will take care of that right away! I recently added this cream into my routine and I have no idea why I waited so long! I've been applying it after the magic oil fat night for an extra boost of moisture. I swear when I wake up, my face is as soft as Madeline's baby skin!! I love that a little bit goes a long way too, so this is going to last me a long time.
Step 5: Eye Cream // Retinol Supreme Eye Serum
This is another product that I added in about 6 months ago and noticed a huge difference right away. The skin under your eyes is very delicate and you need to make sure you are moisturizing the heck out of it to avoid wrinkles...because ain't nobody got time for that!! This eye serum packs so much moisture in one tiny little drop! I love that it has retinol too! I didn't use this product while pregnant or breast feeding though, but I did use this eye cream and also love it!
Additional products I love & use:
Micro Mineral Resurfacing Scrub // I have been using this scrub one to two times and week! I will do it after I cleanse my face and it leaves my skin feeling buttery smooth! I love the grainy texture and how you can actually feel it working!
Sheer Renewal Cream // I actually use this in the morning before applying my makeup. I love how lightweight it feels but it still moisturizes. It is an oil free moisturizer and will work for all types of skin. I'm really picky about the moisturizer I use before applying makeup but I love the way this wears under my makeup and I swear it makes it last longer!
Smooth & Shine Hair Serum, Protect & Perfect Styling Cream , Quench Hair Mask // Because our hair needs love too, Colleen Rothschild also offers the same levels of luxuriousness and high quality with her hair products! I have been using the hair shine serum for two years and can't be without it! I apply a tiny bit to the ends of my hair when it's wet (mixed with the styling cream!) and a pump throughout when I am done styling! It does exactly as it says and adds the right amount of shine!
The mask is another item I LOVE and use every other week. I think it's amazing how you can use it as a deep mask or in place of your conditioner. I use it for both depending what kind of mood I'm in!
The styling cream is a newer product I started using a couple months ago when Santa brought me the Quench and Shine Travel kit. If you haven't tried her hair care products I highly recommend trying the kit because you get a little bit of everything at such a great price! Totally random too, it comes with the best scrunchy that I wear at night washing my face.
One product that I just got and I'm so excited to add into my morning line up is the Vitamin C Treatment Complex. I battle with some hyperpigmentation on my forehead and this is going to help with that! I will keep you guys posted on my results! The reviews are fabulous, so I'm pretty excited to see how much it helps.
If you have any questions at all, let me know! I'm also going to be doing a "get unready with me" over on Instagram stories, if you want to see the products in action!
